If you figured out how to unlock your bootloader, flash a custom recovery, root and flash a custom kernel surely you can read the easy instructions from El Daddy, nothing confusing about it! :rolleyes:

Ok I updated succesfully to 4.4.4 and I have a rooted device with franco kernel and Xposed...

But I how do I delete this frigging OTA notification that keeps popping up?

Two comments after reading a good number of posts:

(1) those in the know are saints with their patience

(2) thank goodness for wug's Nexus Root Toolkit. It makes the upgrade so painless after backing up of course :)
[Nexus 5 General] arctia:
Putting in my own input. I'm bootloader unlocked, rooted, and Xposed framework installed, with TWRP recovery.

To get from 4.4.2 to 4.4.3, follow option C in the op. Takes a little work, but flawless. Just needed to re-root, and grab the latest version of SuperSU afterwards and you should be set.

To get from 4.4.3 to 4.4.4, I didn't even bother uninstalling Xposed framework. Got the notification for the OTA, and let it does its thing. However I lost TWRP this way. Afterwards, boot into fastboot and reflash custom recovery. Grab latest SuperSU afterwards.
[Nexus 5 General] ben291:
Update Failed

I am stock 4.4.3 with Xposed and TWRP and the update to 4.4.4 is failing for me. I followed the instructions on the first page and they worked for me when I was going from 4.4.2 to 4.4.3. I uninstalled xposed in the framework and then tried to install the update. I also tried to update via the OTA notification I got and since some people have reported success with that but it did not work.

I am getting an error that says 'error executing updater binary in zip'. Does anyone know how to solve this problem? I attached a screenshot of the error in TWRP. Thanks
[Nexus 5 General] jd1639:
Probably a corrupt download. Download the zip again and retry
[Nexus 5 General] pspuser007:
Just to be sure on which scenario to follow,

Being on stock ROM, with unlocked bootloader, rooted, custom Kernel and Xposed Framework, I should follow scenario #5 or special scenario #1, is that correct?

(Since scenario #5 looks like a combination of scenarios #3 and #4)

Also, to update from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4, should I upgrade firstly to 4.4.3?
[Nexus 5 General] Rolo42:
Your screenshot says SystemUI.APK was modified and therefore the OTA can't patch it.

I'm having the same problem with "Music2.APK", which I assume is Google Play Music. I converted it to a user app so I could Greenify it; converting it back to a system app hasn't fixed my OTA problem.

Edit: I uninstalled Google Play Music w/Ti Backup, grabbed Music2.apk from KTU84M factory image (using ext4_unpacker) and installed it and the OTA worked. You may be able to do the same with SystemUI.apk. I chose to do this more surgical solution rather than flashing the entire system.img.
[Nexus 5 General] anonymous-droid:
Cant flash KTU84M after nandroid restore

Hello.

I've gotten myself into a minor bit of trouble and I have an idea what the problem might be but not how to work around it.

The short:

Stock android, Xposed. Had successfully flashed 4.4.3 when it was released and made a full nandroid backup prior to doing so. I screwed up today by doing a standard OTA of 4.4.4 after disabling Xposed. This killed my custom recovery forcing me to do a full unlock/wipe.

After restoring the 4.4.2 backup and ensuring Xposed was still disabled, I grabbed:

d173d546ab2347ead90cb0978657f11046300511.signed-hammerhead-KTU84M-from-KOT49H.d173d546 and c08cce45be6d759d6fd29480f01128b18f7d4a11.signed-hammerhead-KTU84P-from-KTU84M.c08cce45 plus the latest SuperSU zip.

The problem is that KTU84M-from-KOT49H fails to install citing modem and unexpected contents errors.

I saw the post by crazycaveman and downloaded/ran his KOT49H file checker, the error it reports is EMMC://dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc. 1/by-name/modem: (crazy long alphanumeric) has unexpected contents.

I believe his instruction for this scenario was that the modem would need to be flashed via fastboot .

Would someone kindly point me to instructions on how to do that and where to get the appropriate file? It's a US Google Play store Nexus 5.

Thank you.

This should help http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2513701
[Nexus 5 General] anonymous-droid:
That is helpful, thank you.

To be clear, I should grab the 4.4.2 image and then I'll be able to flash only the radio file since that's the only one I seem to need?
[Nexus 5 General] Winesnob:
That's correct. I don't recall exactly where the radio.img file is in the compressed package, but to fully view and use all of the files in the factory image takes a few rounds of extracting.
[Nexus 5 General] anonymous-droid:
I downloaded the archive, flashed the radio, crazycaveman's utility gave the all clear and then I was able to successfully flash 4.4.3 and 4.4.4.

[Nexus 5 General] ingineru:
Hi, I am on the following scenario:

- running 4.4.2 KOT49H with stock radio

- unlocked bootloader

- custom recovery ( twrp 2.6.3.4 )

- custom kernel ( faux 0.8m )

- rooted

- used some applications that require root ( greenify, display control, adaway ). I do not know exactly if system files were modified

I understand that i should go to D1. What about the custom recovery and/or unlcoked bootloader?

If i flash the stock 4.4.2 boot.img,system.img and recovery.img can i apply the ota? or should i go steps D ( 1 to 3 ) ?

What would be the best and easiest way to go to 4.4.4?

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:
Easiest way would be to download the stock rooted 4.4.4 rom and flash it via custom recovery. OR you could download the 4.4.4 factory images and flash it via fastboot. System, boot and radio img files is all you need to flash.

[Nexus 5 General] kikiute:
I have everything on stock and rooted. i was able to receive a OTA update but when i restert and installed it i forgot to uninstall Framework. During the installation an error came out. So i rebooted my phone check on my version it was on 4.4.3 but the OTA notification wasn't there anymore. I tried to find how to get the notification again and i found an app at google play the Nexus Update Checker. I was able to download and install it but the error is still there during the installation. the error says :

What should i do to get 4.4.4? just like i updated on 4.4.3 that needs to reroot after updating.
[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:
Do you want the stock recovery? if so, then flash the recovery.img as well. I assumed you just wanted to bump the android version and root it again. :)
[Nexus 5 General] ingineru:
Hehe, no, i will bump the android version and also the custom recovery, thanks.

To sum it up i will do ( from 4.4.4 KTU84P files ):

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash radio radio-hammerhead-m8974a-2.0.50.1.16.img

fastboot flash system system.img

And newest recovery:

fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.1-hammerhead.img

The order does not matter yes?
[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:
Flash the system and then the boot.img. I've always followed this. It shouldn't matter afaik.

Radio and other img files can be flashed in any order.

Hey guys,

I am stock with custom recovery, root, custom kernel (franco) and Xposed.

Then I can install the OTA without loosing any data right?

Where can I get the stock kernel?

[Nexus 5 General] jd1639:
Download the factory image and extract it. In there is a zip file, extract it too. There you'll find the boot.img. flash that in fastboot
[Nexus 5 General] kikiute:
When i updated it the error says "system/bin/debuggerd has unexpected contents"
[Nexus 5 General] charesa39:
This is caused by Stickmount. You need to get the stock debuggerd file, and replace the molded one on your device. Or you can just fastboot flash the system.img from the factory image, then flash the OTA.

Ok, I find a stock debuggerd file. I'm a noob at fastboot. Thank you very much!

Error seems to love me..

I don't know why it gave me an error OTA update in the first place... I did some modifications in the past (when I was 4.4.2.), but then I put the phone back to stock and flashed the 4.4.3., now at this version, the phone was completly stock except it had root (with cf-auto root) and with Xposed and when it was isntalling the new version, it did an error again, like I have done modifications to the system! I Already unistalled all the modules and unistalled the framework from within the app... Don't know why it isnt doing the OTA update.. I could flash it via fastboot and that's what i'm going to do... I'm just curious why this had happen...

Don't know if it's important, but here is a list of my modules:

-Advanced power menu

-AppOpps

-Bootmanager

-Complete Action Plus

-Disable notification consent

-Google CamX

-Gravity Box

-Greenify

-SwipeBack

-XHalo

-Xposed Preference Injector

-Youtube Adaway

It's weird, because this time, I haven't done any system modification and it still game me an error. If you know why please tell me, otherwise tell me wich Scenario i'm in. Was supose to be 3, but this installation error, made me confuse..

Thanks in advance.

Hi

i cant update my nexus 5 to android 4.4.4... from 4.4.3 i tried updating it automaticly with system update from the phone settings but after few seconds of instalation it says error with a dead android on screen. i tried to update it manualy from computer with nexus root toolkit it works but it says unfortunately android setting has stopped on screen and i can absolutly do nothing cause the message always pop up on screen. i returned to 4.4.3 with the same method. did some research on the xda forums and they say return to stock then update from phone, but when i returned to stock it also says unfortunatly android settings has stopped this time on 4.4.3. now i'm on 4.4.3 factory image taken from google flashed with nexus root toolkit the phone is not rooted, bootloader unlocked and cant access to recovery. the phone shows me a notification to update 4.4.4 every time i open it. what section should i do ?

thanks

Don't fight with the OTA. Download the full 4.4.4 from Google. There is a script in the package. Don't run it cause it'll wipe but open it so you see the commands. You will see the last one has a "-w" in the command. Run that without the "-w" and it'll fully flash your phone without wiping it.
